Medicorū ibidem Præses primus qui natus fuit Arbrachæ 26 Novembris 1624 Denatus fuit Dublin 18 Novembris 1669, Cujus exuviæ olim resumendæ hic depositæ sunt. Philosophus Medicus Sumūs Theologus idem Sternius hâc, nullus jam, requiescit humo Scilicet ut regnet, Natura quod edidit unum, Dividit in partes Mors inimica duas, Sed modo divisus coalescet Sternius, atque Ibit ab extremo, totus in astra, die. On the right-hand side, and like all the other monuments removed from the old Chapel in 1798, is a slab with the following interesting inscription in Latin verse:-- P.M.S. Thomæ Seele, S.T.D. Hujusce Collegii Dignissimi præsidis et instauratoris qui obiit Feb 11, Anno Domini MDCLXXIV. Ætatis Suæ LXIII. Nuper ab exilio cum Principe Regna redibant, Et posuere suas Prælia lassa minas. His solis deerant tam publica commoda tectis, Exilium Ars passa est, exiliumque Fides. Præposuit Seelum Carolus, quo præside Musæ Proscriptæ veteres incoluere Lares. Tecta Chalonerus pia condidit, obruta Seelus Instauravit, erat forte creasse minus. Magna viri doctrina, modestia magna, ruberet Si sua perlegeret carmine iusta cinis. Convenit urna loco, debebaturque Sacello. Non alio sterni pulvere templa decet. And lastly, there is a large tomb, surmounted by a ghost-like effigy of Luke Challoner, the real founder of the College in 1592, which occupies the most important place in the cheerless little enclosure. The monument, houseless on the destruction of the old Chapel, could not apparently find shelter in the new building of 1798. The recumbent figure of soft alabaster may once have been a work of art; at a later stage it may have been interesting to the antiquarian; at the present day it is merely remarkable as a geological specimen, a curious illustration of the grotesque result of the action of water upon alabaster, under certain conditions. The simple inscription on the tomb reads as follows:-- P.M.S. Lucæ Chaloner qui inter primos socios Collegii S.S. Trinitatis. A Regina Elizabetha Constitutus fuit. A.D. 1592. obiit die 27 aprilis, A.D. 1613. The shorter the epitaph the greater the man! The vaults under the Chapel were closed in 1867. Several of the Provosts and Senior Fellows were buried in them; the last burial was that of Provost MacDonnell. THE THEATRE.
